Rugged, natural, northeastern

Discover Merchia. Discover Another Mykonos.

Merchia Beach

On the northeastern side of Mykonos, Merchia offers a different perspective on the island: a rugged coastline, the natural beauty of the Aegean, and an atmosphere that feels removed from the island's busier beach scenes.

Let the sea set the pace. Spend time exploring the coastline, discover the character of the surrounding landscape, and enjoy a side of Mykonos that rewards curiosity. As with all of the island's north-facing coast, conditions can change with the summer winds, so it is worth checking the forecast before you go.
